Class 5060 Type AT Adjustable Torque Brakes

Publications

These brakes are dual-purpose, drum-type friction brakes that combine an electrically released, spring-set holding brake with an electrically operated, adjustable torque stopping brake within one brake frame. An all-electric alternative to hydraulic brakes, Type AT brakes can be used with either AC or DC motors, in either single motor or multi-motor applications. Our unique all-electric brake systems remove concerns about broken hydraulic lines or loose fittings. Duplex or quadruplex floor operation is possible with pendant or radio control, as several brakes can be operated from a single controller.
